	Center window: The Great Invitation The Great Invitation: "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." - Matt. 11:28 In the window over the center doorway is a large figure of Christ with outstretched arms inviting us: "Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest." On either side of his head are the Greek letters, Alpha and Omega, the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet, the traditional symbols from the early church for Christ as the beginning and end, Before him is a group of seven people representing mankind, healthy and afflicted, at various stages of life and times of need: childhood, youth, middle age and old age, those who mourn, and are crippled and blind.
